Uncomfortable Day-cancelling future Viator trips involving driving

Guide was fine. On full day tour, four of us were squeezed into a small SUV. All very uncomfortable. We expected better for $1,500.

Operator response

Dear customer, We are very sorry that the tour was as you expect... without a doubt Joy , driver/tour guide explained to you why a 4-seater car... is a tour that visits places where it is not easy to park, for example... At top private tours we always try to use large cars but it is true that we cannot guarantee it, we only guarantee one seat per passenger Many Thanks & hoping see you soon again Pilar Gonzalez

Wow!!! Beautiful Scenery

I booked this for our group of 15 while on a cruise. I worked with Pilar and he was very easy to work with and highly recommend this company. The tour guide Andy was AMAZING, the entire group loved listening to him on the history. He was informative and very fun. Do this tour and you will love it! There is a lot of climbing but it is worth it.
